This book considers personality disorders and how they are treated within the institutional context of prisons and hospitals and offers practical guidance on assessment, formulation and integrated treatment planning.

Treating Personality Disorder offers contributions from professionals in psychiatry, nursing and psychology as well as prison officers and service managers and areas of discussion include:

  • delivering integrated treatment to people with personality disorders
  • issues and challenges for the clinical professional, and
  • the role of the psychiatrist in treating personality disorder.

Treating Personality Disorder will provide a timely and valuable guide for all professionals involved in the treatment and management of serious personality disorders within an institutional framework.

“This book is a comprehensive, informative, practical, and optimistic guide… It is extremely well-written by a collection of very experienced practitioners – and essential reading for psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses, occupational therapists, and prison officers.”
